Positively contagious

Istraži sadržaj

If positive sentiments are contagious, CFOs have caught the fever. In this edition of Global CFO Signals, finance executives worldwide seem to be embracing recovery and setting their sights on expansion, despite continued economic hiccups. In fact, CFOs in many of the 17 countries and regions reporting share not only increased optimism this quarter, but also increased action.

The trend is not universal, of course. In North America, CFOs are not allowing their still-positive outlook to translate into increased expectations, and CFO optimism fell in Ireland and Norway.
